True Trust and Love that can't be Broken (Story 1)

by Sweetbaby162016

The first story came, thinking about, 'What if Karai wasn't who she seems to be. And what if she's taking orders from a master, who wasn't Ch'rell aka Utrom Shredder. But someone on the good side' That's what the story, and others after it, will be.

Disclaimer: I don't own TMNT or anything.

AN~ I'm sorry for the redo of the chapters, though much has not changed in the story, just a little detail. And giving everybody 'heads up'. My characters will from now on be considered OOC (less stress on me ^. ^). The story will still have 2003 anime cartoon of TMNT universe. The style looks of the characters in the chapters (at the moment) will be of 'Fast Forward'. While their attitudes and traits will be a mix of their 1988-2013 counterparts including all the movies (1-4), especially Raphy Boy and Puzzle Monkey Casey [;

With that said on with the chapter.

Chapter 1: Turtle Leader/Foot Leader

May 19, 2005

A dark shadow was jumping from rooftops to rooftops. The shadow was the shape of a young man, probably the age of an older teen. But as some city lights, from the ground at a movie theater, shine on him as he went by, it reveals some of the person's appearances. Instead of a human person, it was a green mutant turtle and not human at all. Though the twin katanas placed upon his shell back, blue ninja bandana with two white tinted eye holes to see out of, told he's some kind of ninja and wasn't your normal mutant turtle; if you call being a mutant turtle normal.

Finally taking a break on one rooftop, the blue bandana ninja turtle took in the night all around him in bliss.

"It's good to be outside again," Leonardo whispers as a light wind blew against him. "Six months in the lair was too much."

After defeating the real Oroku Saki; who'd been revived as a demon by the Foot Mystics. Leonardo and his three younger brothers were forbidden from leaving their lair for six whole months, while the humans healed and got back to their everyday life's after the ordeal they all been through. But while he and his brothers were 'grounded' by their father Splinter. Casey and April, in early months, kept them updated with the happenings going on up-top with the citizens. And he and his brothers got taken back with the info giving to them.

It seems all the Foot had vanished, which the Purple Dragon had been slowly taken over all the Foot's territories before the mob could. The Purple Dragon, with Hun still leading them, has, in the less of two months, became the top criminal operations in New York. But a new unknown gang last month has come to the surface, given the Purple Dragon trouble. As for the name of this new gang, Casey had tried to find out its name and almost got killed doing that task, so they decided to call it the 'unnamed gang' for the time being. But Leonardo fears the 'unnamed gang' will be their worst enemy gang because they heard the gang has a style blend of both the Foot and the Purple Dragon. Hand to hand martial art combat similar to the Foot. And possesses, army firearms like the Purple Dragon. Regardless those traits could give the Hamato clan and their allies trouble. Leonardo believes this gang is their worst enemy gang. Mostly since this gang kills innocent bystanders and rape children out of fun, which both the Foot and Purple Dragon wouldn't be caught dead doing.

That's why as soon as Master Splinter gave him and his brothers the go ahead. Leonardo and his brothers went on patrol early evening after 1:00. But though he's supposed to stay on the other side of the city patrolling. He's now actually heading further away from his post.

Back to running and jumping from rooftop to rooftop once again, Leonardo was getting closer to his destination. The Foot's headquarter and where Oroku Karai; the leader of the Foot, reside at.

Despite Karai and the Foot, the ninja hasn't been doing any criminal lately. The eldest and head leader of his brothers saw Karai on the news offering her family's money to the mayor and the city to rebuild New York as Oroku Saki had done after the invasion of the Tricerations. Something that ended up helping him create a star-ship, right under everybody's nose. Which had Leonardo scowling to himself of Karai making the city believe she's some kind of saint when she's anything but.

She's up to something just like her murder of a father been... and I will find out what and stop her, for good this time. I won't hold back any longer.

A big part of Leonardo wanted Karai to have been killed along with the demon Shredder. For it would have given his family some needed ease and peace. But it didn't happen. However, a deep but small part of him, he's been ignoring since he was betrayed by Karai, was glad she lived through it. For it was this deep but small part that's kept him from taking her life every time he's had a chance too. But each time he lets her lived. He gets chewed out by both his brothers; Raphael and Donatello. While his youngest brother Michelangelo and father Splinter always seem relief when he doesn't kill her. Which always seem weird to him, that they didn't want him to take Karai's life.

Shaking his head of where his train of thought was heading, Leonardo stop in his tracks again as he came to his destination. Standing on a rooftop of a shorter, but tall building across the street from the Foot's skyscraper headquarter building. Leonardo's head tilts up, scanning over the renew massive skyscraper tower. Being the new skyscraper building's taller than the last Foot's headquarter, making it taller than any of the buildings around it. As so, Leonardo knew his grappling hook wouldn't help him, this time.

Although the building's the same colors as the last one. There's more black texture in the stone steel building than before, as well as many glass curtain-walled office windows. But most of the building was load-bearing walls. Seeing, he'll have to scale up the building to see the top part of the skyscraper, he placed on his ninja Shuko hand claws; grabbers that were black strap band hands around the middle of the hand with sharp metal claws resting in the palms to grip any hard material. He drawled back a little from the edge of the rooftop, before taking a run and jumping into the sky to reach the skyscraper building. Being trained most his life into martial arts and having Splinter teach him as a kid turtle to face his fear of heights, Leonardo wasn't fazed by the length or heights from the rooftop that he just jumps from to reach the other taller and more massive building he was reaching for. In fact, he kind of enjoys the trilled it gave him to be hanging in the air for a few seconds before taking his Shuko hand claws, gripping the stone building and thanking his stars that he didn't come in contact with any of the glass windows.

Making sure his hand claws had a good hold against the building's wall, he started scaling up the wall. That's if he didn't hear the sound of a car coming to a stop at the curb in front of the building. Pausing in his climbing and hiding in the shadows, Leonardo let his eyes land on the black long car on the curb that had been making the noise. Not taking his focus off the car, he saw the driver got out to reveal the driver was a familiar tall man with one side of his head bald and the other with short straight purple hair, wearing a white blazer over his mountain shoulders and white straight pants with shiny white shoes and tinted sunglasses to hide his eyes. It's one of Karai's loyal ninja bodyguard. Once he was out of the car, Leonardo watches the ninja bodyguard go around the car to the other side to open the back side door. And once he did. The turtle couldn't move his sight or attention from the young dark haired Asian woman who stepped out of the car, dressed in a black sexy strapless green sequins dress. The sweetheart neckline flattered her nice shape bust, while the front slit showed off one of her sharply lustrous leg when she walked towards the building's entrance. Her feet were covered with green sleek sophisticated sandals with crisscross straps and 3 ½ heels making her much taller than she really was, and on her arms were black/green long silk arm-length gloves. Her now long black hair was all gathered to the back, twisted into a tube-like- shape, making a formal French twist hairstyle.

However, he didn't want to admit it out loud, but Leo couldn't help to see how Karai's formal dress hugged her busty figure. Her appearance gave a sexy and seductive look, while still looking stunning and elegantly at the same time. And though he shouldn't be able to, he could have sworn he could see her haunting green emerald eyes looking up at him when she tilted her head towards the many story building (828 m- 2,717 ft.).

But Karai wasn't seeing him hanging on the building, but smiling at the night sky over all the city lights, and couldn't wait to reach her private office at the top of the 120-floor building where she will be able to see the moon better. Tonight was special and important night because she was informed by her master and new master, that the Turtles were able to leave their lair tonight and her new master's sure Leonardo would visit her tonight. Looking for answers about the change in control of the city. And with her new master's permission, she'll be finally able to reveal everything to Hamato Leonardo.

Well, almost everything... Karai thought as her smile grew when her train of thought went to the blue bandana head leader Turtle, that she believes could feel his presence nearby. That was until her escort's voice reached her ears.

"Well since you've decided to leave the mayor's party early, how about you and me get comfortable in your secret living bedroom quarter, my Mistress Karai." Dr. James Chaplin said, approaching Karai, whispering in her ear, while placing his hands on her bare shoulders, rubbing them. "I'm sure you agree with me, that we're ready to go to the last step in our relationship-"

Feeling uncomfortable, Karai's smile instantly left her red-lipstick lips and became a frown as she felt his unwanted hands rested against her bare creamy shoulders, not knowing a certain blue wearing bandana mutant turtle was growling while clenching his teeth when he saw Chaplin's actions, but then stop himself when he realizes what he was doing.

"What am I doing? Why do I give a shell, that obsesses Dr. Chaplin has his hands on that cold-hearted monster? " Hiding more of himself in the shadows of the building, Leonardo for the second time that night shook his head to get rid of his thoughts of Karai as anything to him but a sworn enemy. "She chose her path... the path of her father's …...a path... of nothing but darkness and dishonor."

Though he said this, Leonardo didn't wipe the slight smirk from his face as he saw Karai rudely brush James Chaplin's grip off her shoulders, drawing back from him with a snare, as her other loyal ninja bodyguard; a short bald man with two lines of dots going from the front to back of his head, wearing a black sweatshirt and pants with gray shoes, with just like the taller ninja bodyguard, tinted sunglasses to hide his eyes also. Had stepped away from his post to get her red and black long thin coat from the car for her, while his buddy kept the door open for him.

"I didn't give you permission to touch me, like that!" She shot at the young redhead doctor when she brought her eyes to him, while the shorter bodyguard place the coat on her, covering most of her figure, before going back to his post at the emergency entrance door, waiting to hold it open for Madam Karai, cause since it was late and the automotive doors were not working, he had to use the emergency door entrance to the building. "Just cause you're my escort to these business parties doesn't mean you can get touchy feely with me, understood."

"But Mistress Karai." Dr. Chaplin said, not hiding the obsess look in his eyes towards Karai, who once saw this, started frowning deeply, while forcing herself from punching the doctor. The only thing saving Dr. Chaplin from Karai's real wrath is he has the technology and system that's keeping track on her father's whereabouts and his prison. " we been dating for five months." He boldly took her hand in his, "Not to mention that we use to be in a relationship when your father was still on earth." He added, not noticing the annoyed looks he was getting from both bodyguards.

Though Karai had to remind herself again of Dr. Chaplin's worth to her masters' plans. She couldn't keep him thinking there's something romantic between them or was. And with the new master's permission, she's going to set him straight. "I'm sorry to tell you. I wasn't dating you back when my father was here because I wanted too. No, far from it." Karai put on a fake apologize look and slowly moved her hand from his. "I was dating you the because my father orders me to. So you would upgrade all Baxter's projects, blueprints with blind eyes. And for asking you to be my escort to these social parties, was to thank you for protecting me during the war with the demon Shredder. That's all-"

"Why are you telling me these lies?" He gripped her shoulders, staring into her eyes; crazy like. "I know you love me. Cause that demon Shredder even picked up on it. So maybe we go up to your living quarters, to just talk and see where we go from there." He took her hand again and begun going for the front entrance. "I'm positive that once we're alone, you'll realize you do love me and tell me sorry for thinking otherwise."

That doctor has lost it now. Thought not only both Karai's bodyguards but also Leonardo.

"Chaplin!" Karai jerks her hand from his grasp, freely showing her annoyance to his unexpected actions towards her as she slapped his face. "I'm not lying to you! And I will not be manhandled by no one! Especially some egotist doctor who makes Baxter Stockman seem selfless and humble." Bypassing him, Karai stepped towards the building with the short bodyguard having the door opened for her and only her. "My plans for the rest of the night is some paperwork and then bed." She said over her shoulder without looking back to the frowning redhead man. "I don't need, company for that, so good night Dr. Chaplin, Cole will take you back home. And don't expect me to call you to join me at another party. And I would think your best choice at the moment will be taking a few weeks off from the lab, as well as be forbidden to come to the building without my say so." Karai walked into the entry of the building with the shorter bodyguard still holding it for her. "Thank you, Han." She added to the shorter bodyguard, not once glancing back at Chaplin or his shouting as Han closed the door behind her, blocking Chaplin from going any further.

"But Mistress-" Before Dr. Chaplin could rush pass Han to get into the building to Karai, he felt himself being a jerk back by the collar of his black tuxedo by the taller bodyguard Cole.

"Madam Karai asked me to take you home, and that's what I'm going to do." Not giving the young man's protest a thought, Cole drags him back to the car then threw him in the back seat and closed the door. "If you didn't know how to get into Dr. Baxter Stockman's project programs and get pass his code passwords, Madam Karai wouldn't have wasted her time with trash like you this long..." Cole's murmuring trail off while opening the driver door, as he saw a shadow figure climbing up on the building. He knew if he wasn't a skilled ninja himself, he wouldn't have been able to spot the turtle scaling higher up the building. "So, MS was right?" Smiling, Cole got in the driver seat and started the car as Chaplin started yelling at him from the back.

"Let me out of this car! I have to convince Mistress Karai she doesn't know what she's saying! She needs me-" He went for the doors, but Cole locked them from the front when he figured what the doctor was going to pull, which made the redhead madder. "WHEN I MARRY MY MISTRESS KARAI! YOU'RE GOING TO BE THE FIRST I FIRE! DO YOU HEAR ME YOU BIGFOOT!"

As respond to the doctor's ranking Cole press a button which had a tinted glass window come up between the back and front, blocking out Dr. Chaplin yelling from his ears. "If things go well tonight, you will be the one without a job. You, whiny redhead freak." Hoping things go good, Cole pulled out of the park and drove away from the curb and building. But not before taking one more glance at the shadow figure still climbing the building to reach the top. "It's all up to you, Hamato Leonardo to trust Madam Karai for things to change the Foot's fate.

Inside the Oroku's building.

Entering the entry door, Karai found herself in the lobby of her building. Known as the reception lobby. Made to look like a normal waiting room with comfortable furnitures, such as a few couches and lounge chairs, so that people like the mayor, business agents and reporters will be able to wait in comfort. There's also a big screen television set, books, and magazines to help them pass the time. Also completing the floor, a reception person behind a desk; who's brown shoulder-length hair covered her sky blue eyes once she bows to Karai.

"Welcoming back, Madam Karai." the reception named Pearl said. "I was just about finish with my station, before leaving." Karai bowed to her, smiling kindly at one of her workers.

"Then I hope you have a good night after you're done with your station, Miss Brown. And your sister I said hi." Bowing one more time, Karai continued on her way.

Midway in leaving the lobby area, she passed two local elevators. Closest one, leading only to 3 floors; the ground basement, 2-floor Breakfast/Main kitchen, and one-floor library. The furthest one, lead to the 2-floor dojo; holding some express elevators which goes to the other floors within the building; 7th- 116th

The last four floors, completing the building. Are the private floors, where Karai's housing is the two-level penthouse making up,119th- 120th? While 118th floor holds her apprentice/assistant's housing. And 117th holds Han and Cole's shared housing. But since these' floors were private, and separated from the others. Only one elevator reaches these' floors. The same elevator Karai's heading for.

"Hello, Madam Karai."

Karai stops as she's greeted by her assistant/ apprentice, Angel. "I have all the reports with me, would you like to go over them or wait until tomorrow?" She added as Karai went back to walking, motioning her to follow, which she did.

The once purple pigtails punk 13-year-old girl, now's a 15-year-old, who got rid of her punk style, to replace with a layback/chic style; purple multi-way tunic sweater and light grayish black ribbed legging with black ankle buckle booties, while her once shoulder length purple pigtails was now mid-back-length black hair with purple highlight and most her piercing was gone, showing tan skin face with light make-up that brought out her golden brown eyes. But Angel's appearances weren't the only thing, changed for her.

For she's been through a lot since the past 4 months. With the first month starting it all. Her brother, Ryan was killed, along with other innocent bystanders, through a crossfire between the last of the mobs and the Purple Dragon. At that time Angel's brother was doing good for himself by going back to school and working at a small shop to help their grandmother pay bills. After her brother's death, her grandmother, out of sadness for her lost grandson, had a stroke. And although the hospital saved her. Angel's grandmother needed to care for 24/7. Care the hospital couldn't provide her without cash up front. So they turned her away. Angry with losing her brother and helpless to help her grandmother. Angel decided to get vengeance for her brother by asking the Turtles for help in her revenge on the mobs and the Purple Dragon. But though both Raphael and Michelangelo wanted too, Master Splinter said there's nothing they can do for her. For he said, killing two gangs wouldn't bring her brother back. She knew Splinter been right deep down, but her hate and pain didn't let her believe his wisdom. So she handles it herself. At first, she went for the mob, but they were either dead or hiding from the Purple Dragon. So she went for the Purple Dragon, especially Hun; the leader of the Purple Dragon. For it has been his army gun weapon taken Ryan's life. But when she went after Hun at his stronghold, she ended up being face to face with the same army gun.

And at that time, Angel realized she didn't think her plan through, for she'd been outnumbered and out-skilled to win. And with Hun's weapon facing her down, she didn't want to die. For she knew her brother would never forgive her for leaving their grandmother alone. Thankful at that time when Angel had entered Hun's hideout, not caring if she comes out alive. Karai's secret agents; Joy and Adam had been watching and spying on Hun's new headquarter building a tower. So before Hun and his gang could kill her. Joi and Adam came to her rescue in time. Then they took her to Karai, who once earned teen's trust, Angel told her what happen with her brother and grandmother. Which after hearing Angel's heartbroken tale, Karai order both her bodyguards; Cole and Han to take Angel's grandmother to the Foot's private hospital to be watched over, while she took Angel under her wing and started teaching her in martial arts, as well as having her a private tutor in studying.

And in the second month after Karai took her in. Angel discovered Karai wasn't like she acted, and found Karai's true purpose of treating the Turtles like enemies. A purpose ordered on her by the 'Tribunal Ninjas' as well as her first master; Haru Oroku. Knowing this, Angel held all this from the Turtles, April, and Casey by not revealing, she's alive and safe.

And while her grandmother been in the hospital, it has been Karai who had been taking Angel to visited her grandmother each time she went. But Angel believed the last visited her grandmother already had her foreseeing her grandmother's fate before the doctors inform her and Karai she's dying, and won't make to the next year. But her grandmother also knowing she's dying, had asked Karai to adopt Angel after she's gone. Although Karai had told her to fight and stay strong for Angel. Karai still honors her wish, but only if Angel wanted it too. Where Angel had said yes. A week after Angel's grandmother passed away, Karai became Angel's guardian. But instead of being like mother and daughter. Her and Karai looked at each other as sisters. For they, in a short time, grown a sister bond without knowing it.

"Madam Karai," Angel paused to bow to Karai in respect, as they stop in front of the private elevator that will lead them to Karai's office. "The teachers from Japan have arrived, including Hashi Akemi." She added, handing over her computer pad to Karai with report updates display on it. "And I have the new list from the mayor on what else that needs to be rebuilt. And Khan still hasn't come to the surface after your last duel with him, though some of his men are out in the open still. The Purple Dragon has already taken our last territory streets and warehouses, but not our cloaked buildings in the city." Karai didn't speak until they both were inside the private elevator.

"Though I'm not pleased with my territories being taken, I'm glad they left the cloaked buildings alone." Karai looked over the pad screen to see that almost all of New York's rebuilding was complete, only a couple of streets and houses were left. "Also have Lady Akemi and the others from Japan rested up, for it will take a lot of strength to train the few soldiers that are still loyal to the truly honorable way of the Oroku clan." She paused looking over another window on the computer screen pad, to see the mayor's bill for her. "As for the rest of the rebuilding of the city. Wirier the right amount the mayor is asking for to the city's account, but make sure Tora and Joi are there to observe the mayor's constructors and their blueprints, as well as how much our money is really going into the city and not some of the mayor's pointless overdoing remodeling of his estate. I might be the cause of what happened to New York from the demon Shredder, but I will not pay for what I didn't cause, especially since I already had his mansion rebuilt. "

"Yes, Madam Karai."

"Angel, you can stop calling me Madam Karai, since we're alone now, Imoto?" Karai said. Though the two are sisters. They still had to keep things under wrap, that's why Angel's now Karai's assistant/apprentice. But when their alone or in either one of their living quarters in the Foot's Headquarter building, they call each other sister in Japanese.

Turning off the computer pad once Karai gave back, Angel rested the pad against her, and threw a sly smirk over to Karai, having the older woman raising her eyebrow at the familiar expression she's getting, and starting to dread why Angel had her 'I'm going to tease you, Onee', look.

"So..." Angel tilt her head to the elevator ceiling. "how do you think Leo's going to act, once you tell him everything, that is..." She lowered her head, turning to Karai. "if you tell him everything, including your feeling-"

Karai crossed her arms and avoided Angel's mischief eyes. "I'm telling him, what they're letting me tell. And nothing more."

"Oh come on!" Stepping over to her sister, Angel instantly took her sister's hands making Karai have to undo her folded arms. "I know you been counting the days when you could tell Mikey's brother-" Angel was cut off when the elevator came to a stop, which Karai pulling away from her, stepped out of the doors when they opened and headed for her office at the end of the long hall she was hasting down without running.

Realizing what just happen, Angel frowned at Karai's retreating back as she too got off the elevator and rushed after her sister. "Hey! Karai-Onee, wait up!" She cried out.

Angel reaches Karai once she's standing and facing two massive black/green/purple doors with the Foot's symbol in red on both doors. "Why don't you open-"

Her words were cut short by Karai whipping around and covered her mouth to be silent.

"Shh..."

Saw Angel's going to be silent, Karai removes her hand. "He's here." She whispered, knowing she didn't need to explain who, 'he' is. With Angel giving a nod in understanding. Karai turned back around to the doors. I had a feeling you was outside my building, Leonardo.

Earlier outside the top of the Foot's Headquarter Building

Leonardo didn't think about the climbing, but more on getting to the top as he finally made his way up. Being at the top part of the skyscraper, he discovered Karai had to change the whole top of the skyscraper detail and design from her last decorative style. Though she still had a place to land her helicopter, a helicopter that wasn't black, now green/purple/black with the Foot symbol in red on the left door of the helicopter.

The helicopter's landing base was to the side and not facing where the last one used to, by the front of Karai office. The back and right side on the top of the skyscraper was load-bearing dark gray stone, while the left side, where the helicopter was, stilled had a load-bearing dark gray stone. But also had a door entry attach to it; that's purpose is only to get Karai and her pilot to the helicopter. The front part of the top of the skyscraper had tall long glass curtain windows. But high on the very top of the skyscraper was the detail of a top half triangle made of 4 glass windows, that finished the top of the skyscraper design.

Not caring about the new details. Leonardo opens one of the windows of the half triangle glass window, and drop into a massive open, but almost dark room. And like the outside, Karai remodeled the room that used to be an office.

Although the office area was still there; however, the room was more than an office from the looks of it. Karai's main detail colors were different, like where it uses to be red/brown/black and slight white/tan. It's now a mixer of colors; black/green walls, black edges/ light brown tatami mats floor coverings with a long black/green walkway rug that splits the room. Because it went from a rosewood French desk with a flower motif to the entry of the whole room.

In the center of the rug was the symbol of the Foot in red with purple outlines. Not counting the desk. There's many comfortable Japanese modern furniture (long sofas, armchairs, and sofa chairs) and rosewood furniture (display cabinets, bookcases, bar cabinet, coffee tables, lamp tables). The decoration and style in the room was all Oriental style from oriental wall pictures, scrolls and arts, and oriental fans down to small erotic statues, exotic Jade trees and 'far east dolls in glass cases resting in a few rosewood china stands. The odd thing about the room was it had a lot of Dragon and Turtle accents. Like a half room size dragon fountain noble dragon curves sinuously down the face of this mesmerizing fountain, richly detailed to resemble an ancient stone carving. There's even many gold dragon statues and dragon and turtle wall fans, and wall hanging banners. Most of the lighting in the room came from some white and red 'lighted Bonsai Trees' 6 in all were mounted on each of the walls in the room.

However, it's the massive doors at the entrance that had Leo taken back. For the doors were decorated with oil art of five dragons hovering above an island, but it was the familiar four dragons and island that had him hanging his mouth open.

The four dragons were his and his brothers' spiritual dragon beings and the island is the Tribunal Ninjas' island. However, the black skin dragon with green armor and green eyes, was hovering between his dragon self and Michelangelo's, holding a gold crystal in its claw hands, was unknown to him. He walked to it, placing his hand on the massive doors, looking up at the black dragon's green eyes. Why do those eyes look familiar? And why does Karai have our dragon self' and Tribunal Ninjas' island in perfect detail on her door! -

He came out of his thoughts when he heard a voice coming from outside the massive doors. And as he took out his twin katana and stayed in the shadow of the room near the doors. He could have sworn he heard Angel's voice; someone who he and his brothers haven't seen in almost 3 months.

But he got over it when he felt Karai's presence outside the doors. Getting ready, Leo's eyes narrowed as he waited for Karai to open the doors. Tonight I will get answers to what is going on! And if it's bad I'll end it tonight with her blood covering my double katanas.

…...

To Be Continued.
